Famous quotes containing the words light, rail and/or transit:
“Lady of light, I would admit a dream
To you, if you would take it in your hand.

Of living blood? How else may I remand
Your light if not as pulse upon your ear?”

—Aeschylus (525456 B.C.)
“We only seem to learn from Life that Life doesnt matter so much as it seemed to doits not so burningly important, after all, what happens.

—D.H. (David Herbert)
